SIGMA Corporation introduced the new MC-31 mount converter, designed to use the PL mount lens on a digital camera that uses an L-mount.
Sigma MC-31 mount converter has dimensions of Ø84.4 mm x 42 mm and weighs 330 g (including the supporting platform), it is a purely mechanical adapter from one subscriber to another, there are no electronics and contacts for signal transmission here.
It is a converter that allows PL mount lenses to be used on L-Mount cameras. By using MC-31, users can use PL mount cine lenses, which are widely used in the filmmaking industry, on the SIGMA fp and other L-Mount cameras. The MC-31 has shim adjustments on two points of the mount. Adjustments can be made with a shim kit (included) on the camera side of the mount or a shim for ARRI digital cameras on the lens side.
